Search for Books
Use the search box below to look for books, videos, journals, and other items held in Randall Library's collections. Note that this search can't be used to find journal articles--for that you'll need to either use a database or go to the library's main search at https://library.uncw.edu/.
Use the library catalog to find specific novels. All novels are not in one location in Randall Library; they are dispersed throughout the language and literature section along with works of literature and biographies.
To search for criticism of a novel within a book, consult Randall Library's catalog; select "subject," and enter the name of the novel's author (last name first). Then search for the subject heading subdivision "criticism and interpretation."
